Evaluation of Arctic Sea Ice Drift Products Based on FY-3, HY-2, AMSR2, and SSMIS Radiometer Data [PDF]
Different radiometer sensors have different frequencies, spatial resolutions, and time resolutions, which lead to inconsistencies in ice drift products retrieved by radiometer sensors.

A dataset of direct observations of sea ice drift and waves in ice [PDF]
Variability in sea ice conditions, combined with strong couplings to the atmosphere and the ocean, lead to a broad range of complex sea ice dynamics. More in-situ measurements are needed to better identify the phenomena and mechanisms that govern sea ice

Improvement of Sea Ice Drift Extraction Based on Feature Tracking from C-SAR/01 Imagery [PDF]
In this study, the extraction of sea ice drift from imagery captured by the 1-meter C-SAR 01 satellite (C-SAR/01) was facilitated utilizing the oriented fast and rotated brief algorithm within the feature tracking procedure, thus addressing the ...

Virtual radar ice buoys – a method for measuring fine-scale sea ice drift [PDF]
Here we present an algorithm for continuous ice drift estimation based on coastal and ship radar data. The ice drift is estimated for automatically selected ice targets in the images.

Arctic sea ice drift fields extraction based on feature tracking to MODIS imagery
Moderate-resolution optical imagery holds great potential in deriving Arctic sea ice drift fields because of its higher resolution than microwave radiometers and scatterometers, as well as its larger swath widths than most other optical and synthetic ...

Regime characteristics and patterns of the sea ice drift on the shelf at Magadan in the Okhotsk Sea
The sea ice characteristics and drift patterns are considered for the Okhotsk Sea shelf at Magadan on retrospective data of the ice observations and satellite images. Spatial heterogeneity of the sea ice parameters and its drift is shown.

Distribution of landfast, drift and glacier ice in Hornsund, Svalbard [PDF]
Co-occurring landfast, drift and glacier ice in fjords respond to climate differently and have diverse impacts on the environment. Here we describe a new method to separate ice types in fjord environments on 2639 binary satellite-derived ice/open water ...

Sea ice drift in the Southern Ocean: Regional patterns, variability, and trends
Understanding long-term changes in large-scale sea ice drift in the Southern Ocean is of considerable interest given its contribution to ice extent, to ice production in open waters, with associated dense water formation and heat flux to the atmosphere ...

Interannual variability in Transpolar Drift summer sea ice thickness and potential impact of Atlantification [PDF]
Changes in Arctic sea ice thickness are the result of complex interactions of the dynamic and variable ice cover with atmosphere and ocean. Most of the sea ice exiting the Arctic Ocean does so through Fram Strait, which is why long-term measurements of ...
